Hello Hive
Been on hive for over two years now I can beat my chest to defend how hive has rescued me and my family from abject poverty.
You may have your school certificates and even be good at what you do yet some country are so hard to live in that a first class graduate may end up becoming a bar man just because there is no opportunity for him to practice his profession.
At first I was ashamed of myself that I couldn't even use my degree in certificate to do anything, I often felt that its pretty because am a mediocre and couldn't pass a single Interview or IQ test but looking around me I have other hivers like @gloriaolar my bhasie and @peterale in the same shoes with me and numerous other outstanding graduates who are currently facing the same challenges and I felt better, well not totally better since we have a great challenge at hand.
Gloria became an artist and had to find her inner talent which then became her job.
Although she started her drawing Jon outside of hive and was making portraits for her clients, that never fetch her any tangible income, people were able to pay stipends based on their income.
But thanks to hive she joined her some few months before me, she started posting her drawings before coming across NFT one day.
Then she started selling her art works in hive token.
Moving forward she was exposed to open sea and other twitter space where she promotes and sells the African culture through her art work.
Hive paved way for her and I know and can tell that this wouldn't have been possible without hive.
Peter also found his way through hive, at first he was faced with challenges of creating quality content since hive rewards a proof of brain and you must be willing to hive out something worth it. With time he found his way
He became a poultry farmer after having a good degree from the university and couldn't secure a job.
Poultry feeds are expensive and in order to succeed in the business you need adequate capital to buy bird feeds, feed and grow them well before been able sell quality chickens at the market.
I can tell that someone with no job cannot feed chickens out of thing air, in essence there is no capital for this business to thrive.
Hive came to his rescue and he got enough hive funds to sponsor the startup of his business.
I am proud of what they are able to achieve with their hive funds.
personally almost everyone knows my story on hive.
Choosing to become a farmer after graduation was a hard work and task for someone living with sickle cell.
I have enough health challenges, crisis and breakdowns that should scare me away from working in the swamps, but alas I can sit and remain hungry having a certificate that is yet to put food on my table.
I tilled the farm for my daily bread until I came across hive.
Life became easier with the funds and earnings from hive and even that hard labour I was into became lessened.
I didn't stop farming rather I employ labour and pay them off for their services, the hard labour was off my neck.
I could still farm to have food while I have hive funds to sponsor my health, the children's school fees, our house rent and many other areas hive is covering up for me.
Your support so far has made all these possible and all of my achievements so far has hive as it major backbone.
The question now stands that is Hive the best blog to earn platform.
I started out here and cannot tell if there are other blogs that pay its content creators anything higher than the upvotes on hive.
After hearing about the numerous challenges faced by other content creators in other social media and the web 2 interface, I know I cannot survive or make it well on those platform.
I was never a blogger or had passion for it but hive made this possible.
Blogging on hive is subtile, you are free to express yourself, write about anything or topic as long as you don't plagiarized or steal other peoples content.
Numerous communities to write and engage in.
You are even taught how to blog and get inspiration from all the newbies guide posted by older hivers.
It is such a kind thing to do, teach people how to blog, upvote them for following the process and adding value to the blockchain which then impart their lives with funds from the upvotes...
This is totally encompassing and even if there were other higher paying blog to earn platform they won't hive you this easy guide, you have to be smart on your own and find your way before you can get the best from such blogs and these makes me feel that I may never find anything as interesting as hive anywhere else.
There are several testimonies of how hive has empowered thousands of hivers and also rescued those in war zones or in desperate need, we can't exhaust all these, though I chose to write just these few testimonies.
#Loving hive.
